Verse 1

I’m rejoicing night and day,

As I walk the pilgrim way,

For the hand of God in all my life I see,

And the reason of the bliss,

Yes, the secret all is this:

That the Comforter abides with me.

Verse 2

Once my heart was full of sin,

Once I had no peace within,

Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree;

Then I fell down at His feet,

And there came a peace so sweet,

He is with me everywhere,

And He knows my every care,

I’m as happy as a bird and just as free;

For the Spirit has control,

Jesus satisfies my soul,

Since the Comforter abides with me.

Verse 3

There’s no thirsting for the things

Of the world – they’ve taken wings;

Long ago I gave them up, and instantly

All my night was turned to day,

All my burdens rolled away,

Now the Comforter abides with me.
